a free live workshop
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 26 · 12:00 PM CT

the holiday countdown:
from concept to cooler.

Your whole holiday season — trends, forecasting, ordering, and selling — planned in one hour, with real shops showing real work. From Flower Clique × FlowerBuddy, free on Zoom.
Can't make it live? Register anyway — every registrant gets the replay.

one hour, three acts.

1

dream it.

The 2026 holiday trend report — Thanksgiving & Christmas mood boards, and the finished designs that match them. Know what will sell before you buy a single stem.
2

build it.

Forecast how much to order from last year's numbers, turn trends into costed recipes, and send one clean pre-book order to your wholesaler — watch it happen live.
3

sell it.

Two real flower shops take real holiday scenarios — corporate orders, gift lists, the December rush — and show you exactly how they'd win them.

you'll leave with:

The holiday trend report — boards you can steal for your own buying
A forecasting method that turns last December into this December's order
Real scenarios from two real shops — steal their moves
The Holiday Countdown Checklist (yours free, after the workshop)
The replay — sent to every registrant
